Leviticus Chapter 6 Discussion Page 2

Our Lord God is most holy in spiritual why then were animals sacrificed that are earthly

AMEN! A good reminder for believers in Jesus to remember that He is holy and that the Holy Spirit will continue to convict us.

god is so amazed what god dose to people life.

I believe it to mean that all men shall conceive Gods' covenant and laws apply them the priest shall preach and teach Gods' covenant laws unto all men, it is sacred and holy to God.

God is no more dwelling in physical tents or in temples today, but in the altar of our hearts. Just like the priests, it is our ultimate responsibility to keep our hearts clean, pure, holy and set-apart for the constant indwelling of the Holy Spirit who is the symbol of the fire on the altar of incense.

Ann, there was no wood used in the first sacrifice the fire came miraculously and consumed it from God. Therefore, the fire subsequently with wood was a type of that Divine fire. Lev. 9:24 says, " And there came a fire from before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces ". The Scripture says that Moses lead the Hebrew people through the wilderness for 40 yrs. that denotes that there were enough wood to keep the fire on the altar always burning And if there was any lack of wood the LORD as with Abraham would have provided Jehovah-. God bless us all and in the understanding of his Word. Glory be to Jehovah in the highest through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen!

where did the wood to keep the fire burning come from?

From leviticus chapter 1, variou offerings to God are outlined e.g burnt offering, grain offering, peace offering, sin offering, guilt offering, ordination offering, all of which their solemn purpose was to make an atonement at-one-ment with God. Buying an animal or crops or having to raise an animal or grow crops indicated personal cost involved. David said i won 't offer to God that which cost me nothing. We understand that Jesus is our ultimate sacrifies, that does not mean there is no cost. Our cost is to carry our cross and follow him and to ensure that the fire is kept burning in our hearts at all times. It is easy to say Jesus is my paid for my sins yet not have any personal cost or not give you life to him. Or even further to say i have prayed repentence prayer Jesus has started the fire but it has gone out ever since.

Pam I too use to think that the old testament was boring and couldn 't understand it. God has put it on my heart to read this and he has also give me the understanding that I need. I pray that all of you will keep God first and remember that he will never direct you somewhere where he cant lead you!

@Damion: I think sin and forgiveness is complex. The commandments were only just given and God was preparing the children of Israel for this realm of Holy interaction with Him and the individual . I am growing to find much wisdom and God love in these early books, that I used to think boring
.

The priests ministering in the tabernacle were a shadow of Christ the real Priest. Since they represented Him they ought to do exactly as Christ would. Christ, offered himself up wholly for us and never held back anything for himself. I think this would be the proper interpretation.

to keep the fire burning means that it is maintaining a good relationship with our God through our actions and words

Shows that only blood can atone for sin. These rituals are foreshadows for the permanent sacrifice of our Lord on Calvary for all mankind. He paid in full for sin, trespass everything. What a great God.

So The LORD was basically telling and directing Moses to show and teach the children of isreal how to cook and eat food, cause this was begininning the beginning of survival.
